Sente Sente/ Discussion

Sub-page of SenteSente

rubilia: I think it would be nice to spend some words on how miai values of double sente are calculated - either here or at MiaiValue. The basic explanation there suggests to understand them as DeiriValue divided by the local move tally, but doesn't care about tally = 0. However, "relativly large numbers", as mentioned here at DoubleSente, is different from infinite.

Charles Well, they don't officially have miai values. If they have some sort of large miai value, that means that the crude idea of double sente has become replaces by some more accurate discussion.

Bill: See Double Sente is Relative for a couple of examples of calculating the value of double sente.

The point of double sente, really, is that they (and the replies to them) are so large when they come up that they might as well be infinite in size. Hurry to play them.
